Emilco Construction LLC is an independent general contracting firm that not only delivers impeccable results but prioritizes its clients. We know just how stressful a new project can be. Overseeing a development can take a real toll on somebody, especially if they don’t have the right general contracting team by their side. It takes a lot of hard work, long hours and a particular care to details in order to accomplish and follow through on a vision. Although working on improving your home or business is exciting, we understand that success relies mainly on hiring the right crew for the job!

"Emile is a great contractor and I highly recommend him reservation to anyone looking to upgrade or do a home renovation project. He helped us renovate our primary bathroom (completely, down to the studs and completely changing the layout), created a main floor laundry room, and an extra bedroom. Emile provided a comprehensive estimate, which was accurate, and he finished the entire job within the agreed upon time frame within the estimate. His crew were complete professionals, polite, and did excellent work. We could not be happier with the results and our new spaces. The rooms are beautiful. He went above and beyond in all respects, even when I decided to make changes to the design along the way, he was able to roll with them and told me how much various options would cost and other pros and cons of those options (tiling the whole bathroom vs partial, heated floors or no, different types of fixtures, etc)."

"I hired RASCO to do a deep cleaning of my boiler. What I got instead was a surface cleaning, at best. It is clear to me now that they merely drained my boiler and added a chemical treatment, which is NOT a deep clean and certainly not worth the $369 they charged me. Two other HVAC professionals have since questioned RASCOs work. The controls and the piping around the sight glass, for instance, were not cleaned. The system seems as dirty as ever. Deep cleaning? Hardly. Surface, at best. RASCO charged $320 for the boiler clean and $49 for a separate heating pipe consultation I requested. Oscar charged me the consultation fee and promised he would follow up with the written assessment, which I very much needed. When I followed up via text and asked for that written assessment, Oscar told me he was not sure of the analysis he gave me verbally and refused to send me anything in writing. Ok, so why did he charge me?! When I questioned the fairness of that and asked for that $49 back, Oscar said: **Take me to court**. That is a direct quote. At the end of the day, I had to pay an additional fee to someone else for that written assessment. So, if you think that $369 for draining a boiler and throwing a $15 container of chemical treatment in a boiler is fair, then by all means hire RASCO/ Oscar. But if you value someone actually doing the work you paid them for then look elsewhere. Side note: Because of COVID, I gave the two-person RASCO crew space to work for everyone's safety. Lesson learned: next time, I will stand over and watch like a hawk. Though, there will not be **a next time** with me and RASCO."

Foundation Drain Installation questions, answered by experts

Whether interior versus exterior basement waterproofing is better for your home depends on your budget. The majority of water issues that homeowners experience in their basements are due to conditions that start outside of the home. So, to prevent those problems from seeping in, it’s better to stop them at the source using outside waterproofing methods.

When installing your yard drainage system, consider the slope of your property. Drainage trenches must slope away from your yard by at least a 1% slope to drain properly

Also, consider how much water you need to drain. If your yard holds a lot of water in the winter, consider installing multiple drains to keep the area dry efficiently. Each municipality has different limits for how much water you can drain off your property. 

Before digging, always call 811. Even if you’re only digging a few inches, you could sever a gas or sewage line. A cut line is a serious safety hazard.

Each design is different, so we can’t say definitively if you’ll need a dedicated drainage system in place for a two-foot retaining wall. However, you can likely skip the drainage, as this project is typically served for walls that are 4 feet tall or more. Even with a relatively low wall, consider drainage if you are building on top of clay or poor-draining soil types or if there are buried water sources nearby, like a well used for other outdoor garden projects.

Using filter fabric is highly recommended because it helps prevent debris and sediment from clogging the drain. It’s best to use a non-woven geotextile landscape fabric for your French drain because it is designed to allow water to flow through but not soil particles and other debris. It’s durable and long-lasting, which is why it’s the top choice for French drains.

You will need to fix a saturated leach field if you have a problem with the septic system that is causing improper drainage. If rainwater is pooling over the top of the leach field because of low spots at ground level, repairs are necessary. Options for fixing a saturated leach field include regrading the soil, emptying the septic tank, using a larger septic tank, or replacing the leach field.
